Beginning Tuesday, June 26, sections of the Arrivals (lower-level) roadway used by private vehicles will close overnight (Midnight to 9 a.m.) as needed for work related to Project Journey.
Drivers should follow detour signage to access the passenger pick-up zone when closures are in effect.
Details
As needed for several months, from Midnight to 9 a.m. sections of the Arrivals (lower-level) roadway of Terminal B/C (Gates 10-45) used by private vehicles will be closed for construction.
Private vehicles will follow detours through slip-ramps to access the Arrivals level passenger pick-up zone.
Drivers should use extreme caution navigating the detour route and obey the 15-miles-per-hour work zone speed limit.
As an alternate, private vehicles can pick up passengers on the Departures (upper-level) curb.
Construction activity related to the building of two New Security Checkpoints will take place in the work zone.
Guidance for drivers will be continuously broadcast on AM1640, the airport’s roadway advisory radio station.
Project Benefits
Closing the area will provide space for construction crews to drill foundations for columns and install utilities to enable construction of two New Security Checkpointbuildings above the roadway.
Timing
Overnight closures will be in effect for several months from Midnight to 9 a.m., as needed for construction activity.
When Project Journey is completed in 2021, two new 50,000-square-foot buildings with security checkpoints will replace three smaller checkpoints currently serving Terminal B/C – increasing the post-security space to include all of National Hall and its premier shops and restaurants for ticketed travelers. In addition, a new 14-gate concourse will replace Gate 35X – ending the need for travelers to ride buses to board regional jets parked outside. Concourse amenities will include jetbridges, holdrooms, concessions and an American Airlines Admirals Club lounge.
